Chapter 181 181 The strategic duel of the midfield brain!

Chelsea's style of play did not create panic in Ajax tactically, which lowered the offensive and defensive confrontation of this game to a level, and turned it into an actual match of players' personal abilities.

Of course, the central defender combination of Heitinga and Escuder cannot limit Hasselbaink and Crespo, but with the help of De Jong and Garasek, Ajax's defense is strong enough to withstand Chelsea. The impact of the striker.

Qin Xiong is in trouble.

Although Lampard is 75 times his annual salary, it does not mean that Lampard is 75 times stronger than him, but if he can earn the top salary in the Premier League, the club must not be stupid and rich, and there must be excellent strength.

Iron Man Lampard is a typical B2B role. When he is defending in the midfield area, he can follow Qin Xiong like a shadow!

Qin Xiong can only get rid of Lampard when Lampard advances and assists and then transitions between offense and defense. If it is a frontal attack in a positional battle, it is difficult for Qin Xiong to get rid of Lampard's close press.

In the 14th minute of the game, Lampard stepped forward for an assist and a long shot was blocked by Heitinga with his body. Maxwell received the popped football from the wing and quickly handed the ball to Qin Xiong.

Qin Xiongpan took the football and seized the time to launch a fast break. He tried to challenge Makelele, even at the cost of wasting a fast break opportunity, he still had to try!

The price is worth it!

It can allow Qin Xiong to understand the strength of the offensive and defensive matchups, as well as lay down the game ideas for the next game, and even the next game at Stamford Bridge.

Makelele lowered his center of gravity and was ready to start at any time. He was very stable, just like his compatriot Vieira, giving people a kind of calmness.

Qin Xiong suddenly stopped in front of him and pulled the ball to the right. Makelele also moved to that side. Qin Xiong suddenly kicked the ball back to the left side of his body with his right foot, ready to break through from the other side.

Eh? !

Makelele not only kept up with his rhythm, but also decisively stole it!

Qin Xiong used his body to protect the ball to block the opponent, and then insisted on speeding up from the left.

What shocked him was that Makelele was more flexible and faster than Vieira. Not only did he quickly regain his body's center of gravity after an unsuccessful tackle, but he was also able to keep up with Qin Xiong and make a second press close to Qin Xiong. body of!

What a stalker!

Qin Xiong was pressed against his body, unable to rush forward at all, and was about to lose the ball. When he was hit and squeezed by Makelele's clever movements, his body had already lost his balance. When his body fell down, he Kicked the ball to the left and passed it to Sneijder.

Then he staggered and fell, and the referee said nothing, not thinking that Makelele had fouled.

When Qin Xiong entangled with Makelele and finally fell to the ground, Lampard returned to the defense from the frontcourt. Seeing this, Makelele immediately helped defend the side. His lateral defensive movement is better than Vieira's, and he can It is said that the French team has these two defensive midfielders, and the coverage of the midfield is the strongest among all combinations in the world. There is Makelele in the horizontal direction, Vieira in the vertical direction, up and down, left and right. They are all defensive midfielders, but the coverage is unprecedented. openness.

Sneijder also tried to hold the ball for a one-on-one with Melchiot, but after Makelele came to press, Sneijder was intercepted directly and lost the ball without any suspense.

When Qin Xiong stood up and ran back, his mind was extremely clear.

It can be said that Chelsea's defense is a typical Premier League close-to-press, stalking and stalking, making it impossible for the opponent to control the ball at leisure. This is beyond the scope of technical confrontation. They will use their bodies to fight and block positions. , the ball can pass, people must stay!

Ranieri, who was supervising the battle on the sidelines, was determined.

When he was studying Ajax, he was extremely afraid of Ajax's ability to control the ball. Among them, Qin Xiong, the core midfielder, must be the key figure to be taken care of.

If Qin Xiong has been playing according to the way he played just now, Ranieri can simply sit back and relax.

The Premier League's close pressing makes the local area very narrow. Even a master of ball control may not be able to adapt to the brutal, powerful and unreasonable fighting style of the Premier League team.

There is a typical failure in the Chelsea team: the Argentine wizard Veron.

His two years at Manchester United were a failure. He came to Chelsea and was injured again. It is not without reason that his technical skills are difficult to gain a foothold in the Premier League, unless your ability has really reached an extraordinary state, such as Bergkamp.

Otherwise, players with concise and practical skills like Scholes, Lampard and Gerrard are more able to gain a firm foothold in the midfield.

Qin Xiong is by no means as single-minded as Ranieri thought, he just tried it to make himself confident.

One thing he's sure of now is that having too many people in possession in the midfield area is dangerous.

Regardless of whether it is impossible for him to defeat Lampard and Makelele's defense in a frontal attack in a positional battle, if Makelele alone confronts him head-on, it will definitely slow down Ajax's offensive speed.

If you can't get past Makelele cleanly, then don't try to do it again, because if you go through a lot of trouble and get past the opponent, then what?Iron Man Lampard must also return to the defense in place. In terms of efficiency, this is definitely not cost-effective, or even a loss-making deal.

In the nearly 20-minute game, Qin Xiong also discovered Chelsea's midfielders, Lampard and Makelele, and they did not make too many personal dribbling breakthroughs.

Makelele will only carry out dribbling and organization support unless there is a wide and safe space in front of him, otherwise he will definitely pass the ball decisively and safely to his teammates.

Lampard does not have outstanding breakthrough skills. He is better at passing and cutting, looking for open spaces in the frontcourt. Because of this, Chelsea's midfield brain is more about passing the ball when organizing attacks.

Qin Xiong gestured to his teammates in the frontcourt, asking them to stand up and recover, and completely change their style of play.

Completely abandon personal breakthroughs and carry out overall cooperation.

The situation on the court is a tug-of-war between you and me. The two sides are attacking each other. Chelsea's simple and rough play from the wing is also quite effective. There was a real threat.

Qin Xiong felt a little excited.

This game will be a duel between him and Lampard!

But it's not about one-on-one, who can pass the other, and who can defend the other.

It belongs to the midfield brain and the team commander's duel in the organization and dispatching talent of the overall strategy!

Interesting.

While the cat-and-mouse game is going on in this midfield area, who can create more opportunities for their own team and create more deadly killing intent will become the decisive point of the game!

To achieve this, the ball must be played quickly and decisively, and the movement position must be wider and more active to get rid of the opponent's entanglement.

And it creates unexpected killing opportunities in the organization.

In the 23rd minute of the game, Qin Xiong took the initiative to move to the right side of the midfield. When Grigera passed the ball to him, Lampard was less than three meters away from him in the middle, and Makelele was also ready to play from the midfielder position at any time. Help defend the target area where Qin Xiong moves to the middle of the front field.

Qin Xiong stopped the ball, turned around, kicked, and made a long pass!

The football crossed half the field from the right side of the midfield to the left side of the front field.

Sneijder retreated to respond, firmly controlled the football, and then, without waiting for Melchiot to get close, passed the ball back to Maxwell who followed up from behind.

Maxwell didn't cross the center line and put the ball straight in front of the penalty area to the left.

Ibrahimovic withdrew from the penalty area and waited for the ball with his back on the outside.

Makelele and Terry have to form a flanking attack on Ibrahimovic.

Ibrahimovic remained calm, faced the incoming ball, and calmly knocked the ball back.

On the left side of his front court, the person who came to meet Ibrahimovic's return pass was Qin Xiong!

He moved quickly from the right to the left, and when his teammates were coordinating, he was running and being observed by his teammates.

Lampard has always paid close attention to Qin Xiong's running position, but he paid more attention to preventing Qin Xiong from advancing. He did not expect Qin Xiong to move forward when he moved to the middle, and suddenly retreated in a roundabout way and came to the frontcourt left.

Lampard continued to block Qin Xiong's movement to the middle, but Qin Xiong just flicked the ball forward when he touched the ball, and after adjusting, he sent it out with a diagonal pass!

The entire audience was dumbfounded.

The ball passed by Qin Xiong has the effect of a scalpel, tearing through Chelsea's defense and cutting straight to the heart.

The ball passed diagonally between Makelele and Lampard, and Gallas and Terry couldn't touch it, and quickly rolled into the penalty area.

The Dutch golden boy van der Vaart, who cut inside the penalty area from the right, rushed here!

One-handed!
